No
The summary describes a chemical etchant for dental use and does not mention any computational or algorithmic components, let alone AI/ML.

No
This device is an etchant used to prepare teeth for bonding, which is a procedural aid, not a device used to treat or prevent a disease or condition.

No

Explanation: The device is an etchant used to prepare teeth for bonding resins or sealants. Its function is to remove the smear layer, which is a treatment step, not a diagnostic one. It does not identify or characterize a disease or condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a phosphoric acid semi-gel-type agent, indicating it is a chemical substance, not software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for etching dentin and enamel as a pretreatment before bonding with resin or sealant. This is a direct application to the patient's teeth for a therapeutic or restorative purpose.
  • Device Description: The device is a phosphoric acid gel applied to the tooth surface.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Purpose: IVDs are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not involve the analysis of any biological specimen for diagnostic purposes.

The device is a dental material used in a clinical setting for a restorative procedure, not a diagnostic test.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

pH, viscosity, shape retention functions and etching effect test were conducted for non clinical tests. The performance of FineEtch is compared with K-Etchant gel (predicate device) and ScotchbondTM Universal Etchant (other dental etchant). The test results showed that the subject device is as good as the predicate device. Therefore, It can be considered that our subject device is as safe, effective and performs as well as or better than the predicate device and other dental etchant in the market.

Dear Eunok Choi:

We have reviewed your section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).

Your device is also subject to, among other requirements, the Quality System (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820), which includes, but is not limited to, 21 CFR 820.30. Design controls; 21 CFR 820.90. Nonconforming product; and 21 CFR 820.100, Corrective and preventive action. Please note that regardless of whether a change requires premarket review, the QS regulation requires device manufacturers to review and approve changes to device design and production (21 CFR 820.30 and 21 CFR 820.70) and document changes and approvals in the device master record (21 CFR 820.181).

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR Part 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR Parts 1000-1050.

All medical devices, including Class I and unclassified devices and combination product device constituent parts are required to be in compliance with the final Unique Device Identification System rule ("UDI Rule").

  • · Pretreatment etchant before resin (help to having a strong bonding strength between resin and teeth)
  • . Remove smear layer of dentin and enamel
  • . Pretreatment etchant before sealant (help to having a strong bonding strength between sealant and teeth)

6. Indications for Use Comparison

The indication for use of the subject device are all included in the indication for use of the predicate device (Etching the enamel and dentin for adhesive restorations). There are some differences in expression, but they both can be used as a pretreatment before resin and sealant. Also, both can be used to remove smear layer of dentin and enamel.

7. Technological Comparison

Principle Operation, Biocompatibility, Application Area. Target Population of subject device and predicate device are the same. The performance results of the subject device and predicate device is similar.

Also, both subject device and predicate device have the similar intended operator. In case of storage condition, both products have similar limit of temperature. Therefore, FineEtch is substantially equivalent with predicate device, K-ETCHANT GEL,

and at least as safe and effective as the predicate device.

8. Performance Testing-Non Clinical tests

pH, viscosity, shape retention functions and etching effect test were conducted for non clinical tests. The performance of FineEtch is compared with K-Etchant gel (predicate device) and Scotchbond™ Universal Etchant (other dental etchant).

The test results showed that the subject device is as good as the predicate device. Therefore, It can be considered that our subject device is as safe, effective and performs as well as or better than the predicate device and other dental etchant in the market.
